HDD not recognised after motherboard burned !!

[imendi]

Hi,

The other day there was a storm where I live (it sounds like a story for children, I know) and my PC went off. I took it to the shop and they told me that only the processor, memory and floppy are "alive", the rest is broken.
However, I know that there are some companies that try to recover your hard disks, so are there any tools with which I can try to recover the HDD?
When I start the PC, it does not find it.

Thanks,

imendi

If your hard drive is ok (unfortunatly the drive gets fried along with the mainboard quite often) then you can use the filre recovery program below to recover your data.

Is the drive on the board that got fried or another one?

Try it in another pc and see if its working, can you hear it spinning up when you power on the pc?
